Audit & accounting basis

- Auditor
- Menzies LLP
- Audit opinion
- Unqualified (clean)
- Going concern
- Affirmed
“In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the members' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate. Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the LLP's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.”

Significant events
- “On 19th May 2025 Judge & Priestley LLP acquired the trade and assets of Portner Law Limited. The transaction occurred after the reporting date and therefore does not affect the amounts recognised in these financial statements.”
- “At the reporting date of 31 March 2025, the LLP had an outstanding business interruption claim relating to a cyber incident that occured in November / December 2023 which meant that Judge & Priestley LLP lost access to their case management system for a two week period. The amount recoverable was uncertain at that time and at year end, and therefore no asset was recognised in accordance with FRS 102 section 21 - Provisions and Contingencies. In August 2024, Judge & Priestley LLP received an interim receipt of £300,000 from the insurer. Subsequent to the year-end, the company received £288,402 in full settlement of the claim.”

Each % is (latest − prior) ÷ |prior| for the line item as filed. The comparison is only shown when the latest and prior accounts cover broadly equal-length periods — short or long stubs (typical around incorporation or a year-end change) are suppressed rather than misrepresented. Lines a company doesn't report are omitted. About these numbers
